Side-by-side two front page stories announce: "Crime falls to lowest level in 25
years, FBI Reports" and "Teens Increasingly Find Drugs 'Uncool.'" As we might
expect, President Clinton and Janet Reno quickly took the credit for the lowered
crime statistics. "Attorney General Janet Reno said the rapid descent of criminal
activity was due, in part, to the administration's campaign to put 100,000 new police
officers on the street, and gun-control restrictions in the Brady law that have kept
400,000 guns from felons, fugitives and others."
